Oh. Right. I should have figured this one out.

Thanks!

# check for exists? / read-only etc.

File.syscopy(f, TARGET)
end

… I get this error:

 test44.rb:3:in `mkdir': No such file or directory - C:/test/rbcopies (Errno::ENOENT)

from test44.rb:3

The example I gave assumed that C:\TEMP exists already.
If ‘C:\test’ doesn’t exist, mkdir won’t be able to create sub-directory ‘C:\test\rbcopies’.

I’m on Win98, so I can’t help with permissions, sorry.
